Description
The MGA was a sports car produced by the MG division of The British Motor Corporation from 1955 to 1962. It replaced the older "T-type" cars and represented a complete styling break from the older vehicles. The ‘A' was officially launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1955. Only 5,869 cars were sold on the home market, giving the MGA the highest export percentage of any British car. It was replaced by the MGB in May 1962.
This lovely example finished in Old English White with contrasting red interior presents very well indeed.
Benefitting from a full ground up restoration carried out in the early 2000's the car has covered just 10,000 miles since. It is believed that the restoration included a full mechanical rebuild of the cars running gear and driveline along with bodywork repairs. Similarly the interior received a full re-trim and the fitment of a period radio to retain the cars correct original look.
The result of all this restoration work undertaken 10,000 miles ago is a sorted MG A that has mellowed perfectly making it a very usable car indeed.
